DnD terrain ideas?
Aceldamor:
I used to play the hell outa D&D. Stopped at about 3rd edition. It was great fun, with some great people.
I since moved on to Warhammer and Warhammer 40k....but damnit is it an expensive hobby.
If your interested in miniatures to use for D&D games workshop has nice figs, as well as reaper miniatures. Though they would require assembly/painting.
Seriously though, what is the point about clowning on one persons hobby when you post in a hobby dedicated to video games in giant wooden boxes. :dunno

To make myself smile. You haven't lived till you've had fun at other someone else's expense.

Craft stores can be your best friend. In the wood section you will find all kinds of usuable objects. I got buckets, barrels, square blocks, rectangles, rounds ect... A little imagination can go along way for cheap money. Glue a square on to a rectangle piece and you get a table. Upside down buckets are now stools.
The whole store is a gold mine though. The plastic pillars from the cake section are great. They have 1" bases and come in different sizes. The doll house section had "leather" bound books, candle sticks, plates, bowls serving platters. A plate or serving platter could be used as the magic shield in the treasure pile. Rhinestones and glitter make good treasure piles. Just take one of the flat 1" square tiles of wood and add gold glitter and a few rhinestones. Mix a little white glue with water and pour it over the mess. It dries clear and now you have a treasure hoard. You can get different colored moss from the floral department and use it as any outdoor terrain. And when done just shove it back in the bag. bags of pebbles are good for a lot of things. You can use the white glue and water trick here too and come up with your own dungeon tiles. Add a pinch of the moss between the rocks to really add some great detail real easy.
And sculpy is great stuff. Really easy to work with, dries quickly and is easy to paint. It can be used for anything you think deserves a little added detail.
Its also fun to burn some of the wooden pieces and keep those "damaged" pieces handy. Really great to use with the players who think the best strategy is to throw a fireball in the room and pick off whatever is left. Once you replace all the items in the room with burnt pieces, it really makes them wonder what they just ruined.
I can go on all day like this....

Or maybe there is an underbelly of Warhammer that I've never heard about?

Honestly, I'm not sure. I have seen bootleg mini's and though they look almost perfect you can tell. I also think since a ton of the miniatures are plastic now, it leaves more room for modifying for uniqueness so you don't have the same 20 dudes in a unit that look like they've been run through a replicator.
